I want to expand and make concrete what I already do with extreme effort, both physical and economic I have those who support me, but today I provide food, medicines and clothes, and more and more often we help many families to help pay their bills

THE PROJECT IS TO SET UP A POINT WITH VOLUNTEERS TO MANAGE A SORT OF WAREHOUSE WHERE THEY CAN RECEIVE AND GIVE SUPPORT. TO CREATE A NETWORK WITH CONTACTS OF PROFESSIONALS FROM SOME CAFÉS AND PSYCHOLOGISTS WHO WOULD MAKE THEIR SKILLS AVAILABLE AND DEDICATE A FEW HOURS COMPLETELY FREE OF CHARGE TO SUPPORT THOSE IN NEED BY PUTTING THEM ON COURSES OR FINDING SUPPORT AND AT THE SAME TIME SUPPORTING A PROFESSIONAL WHO CAN GIVE THEM THE STRENGTH TO STIMULATE THEM AND ABOVE ALL LISTEN TO THEM.

OBVIOUSLY, IN THE BEGINNING, IT IS NECESSARY TO SUPPORT MANY PEOPLE FINANCIALLY. THERE ARE FAMILIES WITH YOUNG CHILDREN OR TEENAGERS WHERE THE PARENTS ARE UNABLE TO REINTEGRATE INTO THE WORLD OF WORK, OFTEN BECAUSE OF THEIR AGE OR BECAUSE THEY ARE DISCOURAGED.

OTHER CASES THAT HAVE BEEN HAPPENING TO ME MORE AND MORE OFTEN IN RECENT TIMES ARE THE ELDERLY WHO GIVE UP TAKING CARE OF THEMSELVES, OR WHO FIND IT DIFFICULT JUST TO GO TO THE DOCTOR, OR TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL, OR TO GO SHOPPING. THERE ARE ELDERLY PEOPLE WHO SPEND THE LAST TWO WEEKS OF EVERY SINGLE MONTH WITHOUT EVEN A SINGLE EURO, AND FIND THEMSELVES HAVING TO DECIDE WHETHER TO PAY A BILL OR TO STAY IN THE COLD BUT STILL MANAGE TO EAT AT LEAST ONE MEAL A DAY, AND PERHAPS A FEW DAYS BEFORE RETIREMENT THEY CAN'T EVEN MANAGE TO EAT THAT ONE MEAL A DAY.

BUT OUR HELP IS NOT ONLY TO GIVE BY PAYING BUT ALSO TO DEVOTE A LOT OF TIME TO THEM WE TRY TO FIND CHEAPER SUPPLIERS FOR THEIR UTILITIES OFTEN THEY ARE ELDERLY PEOPLE WHO WOULD BE ENTITLED TO A LOT OF HELP THAT THEY DON'T TAKE ADVANTAGE OF AND HERE TOO OUR PROJECT WOULD REMEDY

ANOTHER PROJECT THAT WE WOULD LIKE TO INCLUDE IS PRECISELY THAT OF CROSS-REFERENCING THE ELDERLY FOLLOW THEM WITH THE VARIOUS APPLICATIONS TO THE VARIOUS SOCIAL SECURITY INSTITUTIONS AND OTHERS THEN FOREIGNERS OR OTHERS, LIKE MEMBERS OF SOME FAMILY WHO HAVE NEEDED OUR HELP AND MAYBE GIVING THEM JOBS WITH THE ELDERLY WHO HAVE PERHAPS OBTAINED HELP FOR ACCOMPANIMENT

ANYWAY AT THE MOMENT I'M HELPING 7 FAMILIES IN A SYSTEMATIC AND RECURRING WAY, SOME OF THEM ARE 4, IN ADDITION TO SMALL FINANCIAL AID EVERY WEEK I ALSO TRY TO DO SOME SHOPPING WITH BASIC THINGS HERE THERE ARE ALSO SOME CHILDREN WHO CELEBRATED THEIR BIRTHDAY AND I TRIED TO DO WHAT I WOULD HAVE DONE FOR MY CHILDREN THEY HAD FOOD DRINKS DECORATIONS THE CAKE AND ALSO SEVERAL GIFTS.

HONESTLY I START TO FEEL THE BURDEN ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE ARE HALF THE CHILDREN I ALWAYS TRY TO DO EVERYTHING I CAN BECAUSE THEY SHOULD NOT BE BURDENED BY LIFE ALREADY WHEN THEY ARE SO SMALL, I TRY TO HELP LEFT AND RIGHT I ALWAYS RUN ALSO BECAUSE BESIDES HAVING OTHERS IN NEED I ALSO HAVE MY OWN LIFE WITH MY FAMILY AND 2 TEENAGERS WHO ALSO HAVE NEEDS I OFTEN GET HELP FROM THEM AS WELL AS SOME PEOPLE ALWAYS VOLUNTEERS

THE THING THAT GAVE ME THE MOST SATISFACTION WERE THE BIRTHDAYS FOR THESE CHILDREN

- I WOULD LIKE TO DO SOMETHING WITH MORE ORDER

CREATING AN OFFICE WITH FILES FOR PEOPLE AND THEIR NEEDS

GIVE THEM A PLACE WHERE THEY CAN TURN WITHOUT FEAR AND WHERE WE WORK TO FIND SOLUTIONS

EVERYTHING REGISTERED WITH REGISTRATION AND WITH A NETWORK OF CONTACTS AND HELP FROM BOTH VOLUNTEERS AND SUPPLIERS

HAVING WILLING AND NOT ONLY PERHAPS ALSO AVAILABLE EMPLOYEES TO ACCOMPANY THOSE IN NEED

GIVE THE MOST NEEDY HELP AND WARMTH

ESPECIALLY TO THOSE FAMILIES WHO ARE STRUGGLING WHERE ANYTHING MORE IS NOT POSSIBLE

THOSE STRUGGLING TO GET BACK ON TRACK

TO ALL THOSE THAT MAYBE WE CAN GIVE THEM A LITTLE SIGH OF RELIEF OR FIND A MORE PEACEFUL SLEEP MAYBE GIVE THEM A NOD OF A SMILE

~HELP THEM WITH A SHOPPING SPREE

~HELP THEM WITH A BILL

~HELP THEM WITH ADVICE

~HELP THEM BY LISTENING

~HELP THEM WITH COMPANY

~HELP THEM WITH SOME PAPERWORK

~HELP THEM WITH FINANCIAL HELP FROM THE STATE ~HELP THEM WITH A VEHICLE TO GET AROUND

~HELP THEM WITH A MEANS TO GET AROUND AND BRING THOSE IN NEED TO APPOINTMENTS FOR VARIOUS REASONS

ALL THIS I CAN ONLY DO WITH RECURRING FINANCIAL AID

WITH DONATIONS, WHICH I WOULD INITIALLY LIKE TO INCREASE TO A SUM OF MONEY THAT WILL ENABLE ME TO FIND A PLACE TO FIX UP AND FURNISH IT, SET UP A SMALL STORE OF FOOD AND COSMETICS AND HOUSEHOLD PRODUCTS, SET UP A REGULAR BUSINESS WITH ITS OWN BANK ACCOUNT, ALSO HAVE A SMALL AMOUNT OF MONEY AVAILABLE FOR AID

--- IMPORTANT ---

NOW THE MOST IMPORTANT THING FOR ME IS TO BE ABLE TO GET A SUM OF MONEY TO GIVE A DECENT CHRISTMAS TO THESE FAMILIES ESPECIALLY TO GIVE A TREE DECORATIONS FOR IT FOOD ETC.

I WOULD ESPECIALLY LIKE TO BUY PANETTONE, NOUGAT AND JUICE FOR FOUR OF THEM, WHERE THERE ARE CHILDREN, SOME OF THEM VERY YOUNG.

AND OBVIOUSLY TRY TO MAKE 9 GIFTS FOR ALL OF THEM (the children)

THIS WOULD BE THE BEGINNING TO REALISE 'TOGETHER' (TOGETHER IS THE NAME OF THE GROUP AND THE PROJECT)
